About Me

His published work includes hundreds of newspaper, magazine, Web articles, essays, meditations, columns, and critiques on a host of subjects, eight books on natural health, two coffee table tomes and an encyclopaedic treatise on Indian philosophy.

He calls himself an irrepressible idealist.

What Raj — as he's affectionately known — likes best is spending quality time with his family, close friends, and reading, writing, listening to music, watching cricket and old movies and practising mindful meditation.

“Rajgopal Nidamboor [Raj] is one of those rare individuals who embodies all the qualities necessary to be an exceptional writer, journalist, editor and publisher. His commitment and dedication is unsurpassed. I have known him for more than a decade[-and-a-half] and during this time he has exceeded all of my expectations. In my years as practicing physician, author and editor, I have never met anyone more capable or more dedicated, especially in the field of mind-body/integrative medicine.”

“The growing interest in naturopathic treatment and nutritional medicine is changing and transforming the public’s respect and use of natural programmes. It is in this context that Raj’s writing introduces [readers] to effective, cost-saving, risk-free nutritional approaches that may be used in addition to, or in place of, prescribed drug treatments.”

I feel privileged to be associated with Raj for more than a decade, a truly multifaceted personality. His knowledge about medicine, cricket, and current socio-political scenario is amazing. His writing and command over English language is second to none. The superb sense of humour and its apt use during conversation makes a dialogue with him a treat... It was serendipity that I came in contact with Raj due to my research work on ovarian transplant. He not only wrote an article in Science magazine, but followed up continually with my further research on vaginoplasty. I will always cherish those articles for their scientific content, simplifying it for the general reader and at the same time his superb language. As a true friend his efforts in disseminating this research all over the world were amazing.

“[Rajgopal Nidamboor] is multi-talented. He has a vast library of knowledge and experience and I’m sure [he] will be a valuable member of any team just the way he was to mine... I remain in touch with Raj and should I have another opportunity to work with him, I would not hesitate to bring him aboard my team.”

AJIT PATEL, Chairman, Sanda Group, UK.

“I consider you [Raj] the ‘Shakespeare of Nutritional Biochemistry.’ Your prose concerning the functioning of the [human] body is not only clear and easy to understand, but also like taking a journey into [its] complex, harmonious creation… Indeed, humans are ‘fearfully and wonderfully made’ and you paint an adventuresome picture of that.”

NANCY HULTSTRAND, my PhD course instructor, USA.

“Rajgopal Nidamboor has researched and written a number of feature articles for our websites. The content he creates is always clear and comprehensive, the type of work we're proud to publish. He's more of a publishing professional than just a writer and is one of the rare providers from India who has mastered the subtleties of writing in a natural US English form.”

“Raj is an excellent editor and publisher. I have submitted my articles to him for editing and publishing and found him to be prompt, polite, thorough and uncompromising as far as [any] work is concerned. He brings to his work his vast experience as a writer, editor and publisher, apart from which he is a warm human being.”

“Raj is a fine human being who is also a real pleasure to work with, thanks to his amiable nature. Yet all of that masks his exceptional skills as a writer, editor, author and manager [all of] which have earned him the respect and admiration of his professional peers.”

Y A PITALWALLA, international business writer-editor, Mumbai.

“Raj is a fantastic editor. His control over English and the way he expresses his thoughts is wonderful. Raj is a very dedicated and sincere person. He is a good leader and good at man management and leads from the front. Raj would be an asset to any organisation he joins.”
